Happy Friday Everyone! Hope everyone is having a good breeding day !

Today I wanted to touch on the Forever Foal and the Perpetual Puppy. If you have an Amaretto Horse or Amaretto K-9 that is special and you want to keep it forever without feeding it then this is what you will need.

Forever Foal
The Forever Foal makes the Retired horse so that It will not have to eat food any more . You can keep it forever without buying food ! Everything else on the horse will work normally just will not need food. The Forever Foal only works on retired horses 120 days old that is retired.
The text on a forever foal will say pet instead of retired.
The Forever Foal can be found in any Amaretto Store.

Perpetual Puppy
The Perpetual Puppy makes a Spayed/Neutered K-9 no longer eats food it works just like the forever foal.
The Perpetual Puppy has to be over 126 days old female or male. Text will also say Pet instead of Spayed/Neutered
The Perpetual Puppy can be found in any of the K-9’s Stores

Until Next Time Happy Breeding !

Of course each will also come with a very cool twist eye and collar that will pass as well. So just to be clear you need to breed any color Wolf with any color Mystique in order to have a chance at getting one of the brand new Wolftique!

Zero Tolerance!

Hello everyone hope you are all doing well. I wanted to take some time to talk to you all about something serious. It has been brought to my attention that there seems to be a few breeders that are in world that are selling Amaretto Breedable Food for horses or any other animal.

If you are selling food you are in breech of the Terms Of Use that Amaretto provides to all breeders that have ever bought anything from Amaretto. http://wiki.amarettobreedables.com/index.php?title=Terms_of_Use

 

Reselling

I am in the process of looking into a few breeders taking advantage of this, selling or buying food from anyone other than Amaretto is wrong. It is not fair to the fellow breeder who do buy from Amaretto.

I have already talked to a few of you about this situation but I want it to be known for everyone, if you are buying food from anyone besides Amaretto, you will be in breech of your TOS with Amaretto. This could result in the following, ban from Amaretto, Amaretto Groups, Amaretto Sims.

I would ask that if you are selling or buying food from other avatars that you please stop as I do not want to have to take action against anyone. Please do the right thing for the community and only use food and consumables that you purchased from Amaretto.
.
If you know someone who is doing this and want to let me know, please feel free to send me a nc or a message in world to Avalon Crystal you will remain anonymous.

Amaretto hates to and takes banning someone from our products very seriously, however if you are selling or buying food that is not from Amaretto this is a reality for you and all you are selling to.

Please share this with your friends, market owners, and all breeders!
I am very upset and sadden by this but I will not let others take advantage of the Amaretto community, and will take a zero tolerance policy. So please remember if someone ims you or approaches you to buy food from them not only are they in breech of our tos but if you buy from them so are you!!

Amaretto Race Track

Happy Friday Everyone! Hope everyone is having a good breeding day!

Need a place to train your horses or just ride for fun?

Did you know that Amaretto has a Race Track? Well we do!
Amaretto has built this nice race track for you all to come and ride your horse or just go there and meet up with some of the fellow breeders. So come ride or train your horse anytime! I have included a picture of the race track and a LM so go over and check it out and have fun!

Don’t forget that AMOC hosts a race everyone month the last Saturday. Anyone can come and race, there is even a market owners race and the winner gets to host the next months race at their track! So be sure to practice and hope to see you all at the AMOC race!!

Happy Monday everyone! Today I wanted to let you all know about some new additions to Amaretto University. ARU wants to keep things fresh and exciting so we have added a total of 4 new classes! These are very informative and interesting classes. The Classes offered at ARU are going strong since the last graduation. A lot of the community is attending in order to be a part of the next graduating class. We would love to see more attend the classes each week. We have classes at ARU on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and we have them at 9am and 5pm slt to give you more of a chance to fit them into your schedule. We also offer time at the end of each class for you to ask any questions you might have about whatever we cover in class that day! It’s a great way to get the answers to some of those questions you may have. If you complete all the classes we offer you will be eligible to graduate in the next graduation ceremony next spring.
